Are horoscopes for real?

They are as real as the evil that tries to consume people each and every day. Sometimes, horoscopes can truly seem to be speaking right to you, exactly pertaining to your life. You must realize that horoscopes can be a tool of Satan to keep you from relying on God and the things of God.

People are fascinated with all types of evil things: psychic abilities, astrology, ouija boards, séances and others. This fascination signifies that fear is at the core. These people are afraid of the future and they are afraid of making bad decisions. In Isaiah, we see that astrologers were at work even during that prophet’s time. Isaiah warned the people about them and pointed to the fact that the astrologers cannot save the people. "Let your astrologers come forward, those stargazers who make predictions month by month, let them save you from what is coming upon you" (Isa. 47:13).

God is a jealous God. He wants our affection and trust to be placed only in Him. He will reveal His plans for us in His timing. He is greatly offended when we turn to things like the stars rather than to Him. Proverbs 3:5-8 perfectly explains what the Lord wants from us. “Trust the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. Do not be wise in your own eyes; fear the Lord and shun evil. This will bring health to your body and nourishment to your bones.” :)
